This is a pretty self explanatory song. The basic story is a guy is heartbroken over his woman leaving him, and people seem to keep meddling in his life, asking if he's okay, and he wants to just be left alone so tells them that he is. This is something a lot of people go through. We need time and peace and room to breathe but can't get it.

I haven't written a serious song in a while. This one popped in my head when I was least expecting it, and it sort of wrote itself how it wanted to be. It's a relatively short song, but I do like what it's saying. It's basically a man telling a woman all the things he'll never be, as to not get her expectations up. Though one of those things he'll never be also includes a man that will break her heart.

I come from a place where "white trash" is thrown out as an insult, but we don't care. We're just trying to live! And while our weddings might not be fancy, wealthy affairs, we sure do have fun! Until the cops show up, of course. So, this is just a fun little song about a wild family at a wild wedding. We usually don't make it to the receptions!

Most of us find that juggling adult life is tough. Finding time for keeping our relationships healthy is often difficult, as we find ourselves having to work constantly just to live. This is a little song about actually making that time that's necessary to love each other.

I think this comes from a place that most of us can relate to. Our parents try to instill this wisdom in us when we're young, typically in small doses and in cliched things that just get pushed around. We ignored it when young, often not even wanting to hear it. Yet when we're grown, and especially when we have kids of our own, we end up pushing the same little pearls of wisdom out there.
